Prevent Child Abuse Utah and the Utah Coalition Against Sexual Assault (UCASA) are pleased to present a special screening of Resilience with filmmaker James Redford.
Researchers have recently discovered a dangerous biological syndrome caused by abuse and neglect during childhood. As the new documentary Resilience reveals, Toxic Stress can trigger hormones that wreak havoc on the brains and bodies of children, putting them at a greater risk for disease, homelessness, prison time and early death. While the broader impacts of poverty worsen the risk, no segment of society is immune.
RESILIENCE, however, also chronicles the dawn of a movement that is determined to fight back. Trailblazers in Pediatrics, Education and Social Welfare are using cutting edge science and field-tested therapies to protect children from insidious effects of Toxic Stress – and the dark legacy of a childhood that no child would choose.
Seating is limited and registration is required. This event is 18+. Each person must register separately.
